He is actually really alert. He's already been out of bed and walked around a bit. He's doing GREAT!!! THey didn't take any bone from his leg, just muscle from one and skin from the other. He didn't have any part of his jaw removed, it was cut and then a metal bar put in.

My son has to go back on Sunday but he'll be back on or right after Christmas. He has already talked to his Commanding Officer about a hardship transfer so he can be closer to home. I told him not to do anything yet but just find out what he would have to do just in case. He really is a great kid. He's been watching the little ones for me, helping them with homework and cooked for them today. He's been an angel.
